GRASP-X,
Gamma Ray Attenuation & Shielding Parameters, is a newly developed web-based code to calculate a number of gamma-ray shielding parameters, including;
- mass attenuation coefficient (μm),
- half-value layer (HVL),
- tenth-value layer (TVL),
- mean free path (MFP),
- atomic cross section (σa),
- electronic cross section (σe),
- effective atomic number (ZEff), and
- effective electron density (NEff).
Please click on the "RUN" button in the dropdown menu or GRASP-X to start the calculations. More information can be found in the "README" page.
